what are 2 ways that excessive HCs are emitted by vehicles? - answer incomplete
combustion
fuel evaporation

what can tailpipe HC emissions be caused by? - answer ignition system misfiring
improper ignition timing
rich fuel mixtures
engine mechanical deficiencies
uneven fuel injector delivery
anything that would harm or influence the combustion process

what is CO? - answer a colorless, odorless, and poisonous gas

,how is CO produced? - answer by the incomplete burning of a fuel

abbreviation for ozone smog - answerO3

When are NOx formed in the engine? - answer during high temperature combustions

how is smog created? - answer NOx and HC combine and then exposed to sunlight

what is NOx the primary cause of? - answer acid rain

short term effects of NOx - answer irritation of the eyes, nose, and throat

long term effect - answer respiratory problems (ex. asthma)

excessive NOx emissions can be caused by what? - answer lean air fuel mixture
defective exhaust gas recirculation valve (EGR)
higher than normal engine temperatures
vacuum leaks
advanced ignition timing

too much or too little of oxygen can cause what? - answer improper combustion

the improper combustion of oxygen creates what? - answer pollution

What can cause not enough O2 emissions? - answer rich air fuel mixture
dirty air filter
faulty injectors
high fuel pressures
a defective system sensor
restricted pcv system
EVAP system purging at low or idle speeds

too much O2 can be caused by what? - answer lean air fuel mixture
vacuum leak
engine misfire
exhaust leak

how is ozone smog created? - answer a chemical reaction between NOx and HC in
sunlight

ozone doesn’t go straight into the air, instead where is it created? - answer at ground

what does inert mean? - answer under normal conditions the compound doesn't want to
mix with other compounds

what happens when the temperature in the combustion chamber is too high? – answer
N looses its inert qualities and can combine with O2
